↔29.63 km ↗+154 m ↘-148 m ◔7 hrs ▲Very difficult
⚑Departure from Avesnes-le-Comte (Pas-de-Calais)
After starting on the Avesnes footpaths, we follow the GRP® de l'Artois, then the GR®121 for a long and varied loop.Wide paths across agricultural plains, trails along woods and finally the Allée des Tilleuls in Lignereuil. All dotted with a few châteaux. It's enough to make for a good day out, especially as the paths are generally in very good condition, even in wet weather.

⚑Departure from Warlus (Pas-de-Calais)
An easy hike on beautiful paths that will take you through Simencourt and Berneville. Warlus was the seat of a seigneury before the revolution. This hike in the plains, with a few wooded sections, is ideal for families.

⚑Departure from Aubigny-en-Artois (Pas-de-Calais)
This is a reworking of an existing route, part of which has unfortunately disappeared due to lack of maintenance. The route through Aubignyen-Artois has also been modified to take the old, less busy streets, and a return trip to Villers-Châtel has been added to admire the church and castle.The circuit is done in the opposite direction to the signposting, which allows you to start with the most urban part.See practical information

Walking La basse vallée du Crinchon à Wailly

Visorando member
↔21.56 km ↗+194 m ↘-196 m ◔6h 45 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Wailly (Pas-de-Calais)
The route is in a very urbanised area, but it is almost always on paths and it is pleasant to follow a river for so long.Apart from the length, it is not too difficult.For enthusiasts, there are numerous information panels, first between Agny and Wailly, then in Rivière. In the past, you used to see lots of deer at the start of the walk (near the "Le Marché à Dieu" woods), but I haven't seen any since the Rocade Sud was built.

A beautiful route around Lucheux, best done in dry weather, as theGR®124is in very poor condition (and poorly marked!) in the forest. You may see deer and wild boar. This route replaces the old one, the western section of which is now impassable.
